An Orange Outing

So on the morning of New Year's Eve we headed to good ol' Stillwater, Ok to check out our men's basketball team.  Oklahoma State had made the announcement a week prior that it would be FREE admission to the public....so who can say no to that!?!  With four kiddos there are few outings that you make that are free...and since we would normally have to purchase 6 tickets at a minimum of $30 each...this seemed like a no brainer to us!  We are suckers for OSU anyway and love an excuse to make the trip north.

My Dad was sweet to us and agreed to come along and help wrangle the kiddos...and take in some Oklahoma State basketball as well.  It was funny though...he and Carter were out within minutes of hitting the road :)  He looks so uncomfortable...with 4 car seats there is not alot of room for additional adults LOL

Once we found some seats....the boys were in AWE of the crowd and the band.  They loved the sounds and the atmosphere.  I love seeing how sweet they look in Gallagher Iba!!

Of course we had to hit up the concession for snacks :)  4 waters, 2 popcorns, 3 M&M's (2 with peanut 1 without), a pretzel and a hot dog later...we headed back to our seats

Love this sweet face....she is a sporting event pro...she loves herself a good game...she has been to OSU football games & basketball games, Thunder games....etc....so she was explaining things to the boys.  It was quite funny...

This little guy had a blast too!  He loved all the loud noises...and the guy yelling at the team behind us....Austin just kept looking at him :)

We did pretty good...we lasted through the first half and a little into the second...then we decided to head out to get some food.  We decided to try to take the kids to Joe's...however, once we found out it was a 2 hour wait we quickly decided to go elsewhere.  That kind of wait is NOT OK with 4 kiddos four and under :)  I still loved watching my kiddos walk the streets of Stillwater...that place is my second home and I know they will love it as much as I did...not that I am going to force them to go to OSU...but if they do I will be super excited :)

All in all it was a great trip and we all came home super tired and napped for awhile before starting our New Year's activities....you know Target and Pei Wei!  Hoping we can hit up some more free sporting events...anyone want to toss some tickets our way??? LOL

I will end with a picture of my lil' poser...that girl LOVES the camera :)  Happy Sunday!
